Why Do People Keep Bashing Posters Who Wager on Bad Teams?

[SkinsRaj28]

Even the worst teams in MLB will still win over 60 times this season...and oftentimes they'll be big dogs in those wins.

So if one picks and chooses when to bet on poor teams like the Royals, Reds, Nats, etc., why are people so confused? Obviously that person feels there's value, thinks that team's gonna get get one of those 60+ wins and enjoy a nice payday.

Also, people seem to bash when one bets on a team riding a long losing streak. Don't understand that either...last time I checked, losing streaks don't continue forever.

Thread should be "why do people keep bashing posters who wager on ANY teams". Bashing should be confined to the RR and never involve sports picks. Only touting, lying, scamming, record altering material.

5starbomb, don't act like you're innocent. Some of your comments rubbing in that the Reds won were retarded. Let's not act like you just had the call of the century. About 40% of public was on Reds.

That's not coming from somebody who is bitter either, the UNDER was the posted play from me.

Guess what the REDS were a huge play for me today. Also look at the Yankees tonite, people say who the hell would bet the Yankees , well after a 3 game sweep by the Angels the Yankees are a great play tonite too.

As it is a play for 80% of the public.

Seriously, the Reds won. Congrats, nobody cares.

good call...

I'm also curious about people who sign the end of their posts & posters who bold every single word/post.

I beleive all three posting stereotypes should have a round table discussion on tv...so i can feel better about my personal life.

 

[fucnluc]

I agree.....bashing people for choosing one side or another is ridiculous but both people should show class before the game and either no matter what side they're on. 5star I didn't mean to call you out, I like you as a poster it's just that's the first thing i saw.

I know it's funny me saying class, but generally when I call somebody out it's always in the RR and NEVER about sports picks.

No team is as good as they look, or as bad as they look.

The poster 'Sherwood' has been raking in the dough this last week betting on the Nationals on a daily basis. It's about the value of the line, even if the team is downright awful that team can cash in a big ticket with the right value. More power to you when you can do that on a regular basis, like Sherwood has been doing lately.

[Drewgasm]

The Reds havent been like the Nationals as far as being big dogs.....quite the opposite actually......the last week against the Nationals and and Pirates they have been minus 170 - minus 200....EVERY day!!!!!!!! Thats the reasoning why people ask how could you bet them......sure, if they were + 170 - + 200....you take your shots on them.....but I dont think anyone could see laying that much for that team....I know I couldnt....today was the first day Ive layed off them.....mainly cuz the oddsmakers caught up with me.....they werent minus 170 today....(gee wonder why) BUT, had I bet...I still woulda had Pittsburgh....But congrats on the guys that had Cincy.........I wont bet them at this pace.....just like I wont bet the Yankees.....FAAaaaaaaaaaaade!!!!!!!!

i need Dave's phone # left my phone at Joe's

 

[SkinsRaj28]

Uh, how do I get it to you...since you don't have your phone, and I can't post it here?

I'll email it and also give Joey a call.

Edit: Christ, that idiot's phone is broken or something. Anyway, email is on it's way.

fucnluc, well-put. No one should really be bashing anyone else's wagers. At least they're putting themselves out there.

Unless they're an annoying tout-wannabe.
